Albert Breer mentioned on CSN New England that he believes there’s still a “good chance” free agent Malcolm Butler ends up with the Saints this offseason.
Breer adds that Butler could wait until closer to the draft to sign his restricted tender with the Patriots, which could start the process of New England speaking with interested teams about potential trades involving Butler.
From there, Breer expects the Saints to have an offer ready for the Patriots to consider and he believes it’s “most likely” Butler is playing in New Orleans than New England in 2017.
